Secure and privacy-minded

Blockchain technology

Smart contracts and data immutability provide improvements to digital signature platforms. Signatura is an OpenTimestamps member and uses the Bitcoin blockchain to take advantage of these, while RSK-based smart contracts are planned for more advanced features.

Privacy

Your sensitive documents and confidential contracts are protected. Client-side encryption preserves your privacy, in order that document content is never exposed to anyone but chosen parties, not even to Signatura.

No risk from third parties

Using a blockchain impedes anyone from tampering or deleting your signatures, ensuring they keep being verifiable if our service is offline or discontinued. Not requiring trust in third parties when signing or timestamping is not just a technical advantage, but a legal one.

Simpler audits

Blockchain audit trail records every step in the signing process. Audits become far simpler: there is no need to read a contract, identify parties and check for their signatures, if it was notarized then every needed signature is already there.

Smart signing

Define signing requirements, for example, not allowing a document to be notarized if a certain deadline date is reached. These requirements are not just software logic, they are blockchain-enforced rules, making them secure and reliable. Coming soon.

Cheaper and safer timestamps

Timestamps in Signatura are permanent. In contrast to common timestamping authority services, there is no expiration date nor linked timestamping processes needed for their preservation, simplifying maintenance and lowering costs.
